Our take on the Amazon Echo Dot Smart Speaker

The Echo Dot is Amazon's smallest Alexa speaker, a puck-shaped device for voice control, music and smart home routines. It is the entry point to the Echo line: cheaper and smaller than the full-size Echo, with less bass and a smaller speaker, but the same Alexa assistant and the same smart home control. It suits people who want hands-free Alexa in a bedroom, kitchen or office, or a low-cost way to add voice control to a room. Reviewers generally rate it as good value for its size, while noting the sound is modest and best for casual listening.

Questions and answers

Is the Echo Dot worth it over the full-size Echo?
If you mainly want Alexa for commands, alarms and casual audio in a small room, the Dot covers that. The larger Echo is the better pick if music quality and bass matter more to you.
Can I use two Echo Dots as stereo speakers?
Yes. Two matching Echo Dots can be paired as a stereo pair in the Alexa app, which improves separation but not bass.
Does the Echo Dot need to stay plugged in?
Yes. It has no battery and needs a power outlet, so place it near one.
Does it work with Spotify, Apple Music and Bluetooth?
It supports major streaming services through Alexa and also works as a Bluetooth speaker from a phone or tablet.
Can it control smart home devices from other brands?
Yes. It works with many Wi-Fi and hub-based smart home brands, though some devices need a separate hub or skill.

The box contains the Echo Dot and its power adapter. Cables and other accessories are not included.
